No, "git log archive/olpc-2.6.30" will still show full history, and
"git checkout -b olpc-2.6.30 archive/olpc-2.6.30" will locally
recreate the branch as before.

The only real difference is that you can't commit to branches that
have been archived in this manner, unless you recreate the tag
pointing at a new tip.
